Endless Punishment Deck Notes

Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls leads a Rakdos group-slug deck that does not believe anyone should be comfortable at a Commander table. The plan is to keep damage happening constantly — to everyone — because Valgavoth rewards that pain with card draw and a growing threat in the command zone. You’re not trying to pick one enemy and bully them; you’re trying to turn the whole game into a ticking clock where life totals are always shrinking. With removal and damage-based wipes, you keep opponents from stabilizing long enough to turn the corner. As the table’s life totals drop, your incremental damage starts to feel like inevitability. Valgavoth becomes a legitimate attacker, and your finishers turn “everyone is at 12” into “everyone is dead” with a couple of well-timed triggers. The deck’s strength is pressure — you make it difficult for slower strategies to set up because the game is always moving toward zero. If you like Rakdos decks that win by making the whole table sweat, Endless Punishment is the kind of misery you can really build around.
